I find that if you are not a Doctor ,you never fully appreciate what goes on in another physicians mind when he makes some decisions.We have all made wrong decisions in the past.Doctors tend to be more forgiving because we usually have "been there." The person was man enough to share his experiences .Let us respect that. I therefore feel that midwives should probably not be on the OB-GYN Net ..

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
